Package: pose
Version: 3.5-7
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source


When I cd to BuildUnix and run ./configure, I get the following error:

-------snip-------
checking for 'int fl_height (void)' in -lfltk... no
configure: error: *** FLTK *must* be installed before running configure.  ***
-------snip-------

However, I've got the libfltk1.1-dev package installed, and it seems to
be complete...

Looking in a little deeper, the configure script test for fltk via a small
C program it creates & compiles on the fly.  I pulled the program out
of the configure script and compiled it manually & got the following:

-------snip-------
In file included from /usr/include/Fl/fl_draw.H:29,
                 from configure:3619:
/usr/include/Fl/Enumerations.H:179: error: syntax error before 
"fl_define_FL_ROU ND_UP_BOX"
/usr/include/Fl/Enumerations.H:182: error: syntax error before 
"fl_define_FL_SHA DOW_BOX"
-------snip-------

Line 179 of Enumerations.H is rather innocuous:
-------snip-------
extern FL_EXPORT Fl_Boxtype fl_define_FL_ROUND_UP_BOX();
-------snip-------

as are the lines immediately above.


I tried including Fl_Export.H n the test program, above the include
for fl_draw.H (to make sure that FL_EXPORT was defined); but it didn't
help.   I'll try to dig more, but I wanted to give you what I had so
far....

later!
